Hi Mengda,

in the latest CGAL version the Nef polyhedra are getting triangulated if
you convert them to polyhedral surfaces. If you want that conversion
anyway to put the resulting polyhedron out as an off file in the end,
then there should only be one problem. Not every Nef polyhedron can be
converted to a polyhedral surface. Look into the user manual for details
on that.
